But very few people do.
Still, it is hailed as the greatest animated feature in cinematic history, by millions of people all over the world.
The animation alone is enough to tan your eyeballs and the wonderful cityscape is brought to life with such attention to detail and atmosphere, it almost rivals Blade Runner.
Best of all is that its not a movie for children. The Japanese have a whole other level of respect for animation, and treat it not as simple colors to entertain kids who are not yet able to understand anything else, but as high-grade art.
Go to bed Disney.

Hey Bro...
ReplyDeleteThe pleasure is all mine. I spent two hours here - hooked at the moment of discovery. After I leave this message, I'm going to watch one, maybe two of your recommendations. Probably start with "The Mysterious Two". Please take two minutes to read this comment through. The last part is the most interesting, and if you want to scroll ahead, just go to the Caps heading called ***!!!*** HERE IS THE INTERESTING PART.
I do alot of deep field writing about movies. My most mainstream stuff is well represented at a site called "metaphilm", where the current headliner is my review of "A Serious Man". I have three other articles up at the same site, including one on "The Maltese Falcon", which is the movie that hooked me on movies.
At my own blogs I have written wildly, and mostly about the movies, especially on Kubrick and the Cohens. These are not movie reviews, but ana-critical explorations of cinematic signifiers. My work is controversial in the same way as many of the movies you admire, so you might like it - most do not.
Because I suspect that as a movie lover, you have seen thousands of films, I would like to recommend a primer, very advanced, which I think is my finest work re: cinema at large. The text is strictly related to "in situ" cinematic cues. It is called "Is Everything We See or Seem..." and it focuses on "Burn After Reading" but requires a good knowledge of at literally hundreds of movies to be completely apprehended. If you give it a gander, I a willing to bet it will blow your mind. I'm not hawking my own style, but the data that I present is astonishing.

The two metaphilm articles are:
A Serious Man

I am very proud of these works. They represent my finest writing.

ReplyDeleteFor some reason, my second comment is not published. Briefly I just want to say that I am not looking for advertising space on your comments page. Please delete my comment with no hard feelings.
ReplyDeleteMostly I am interested in your views regarding my research.
The Burn After Reading Article is difficult, because the case I make is very intricate, but the pay off is Zowie. The others are less research and easy to follow.
Peace and thanks again for your amazing site.
